The frantic attempts

The frantic attempts at
railroad Legislation by certain par
ties in the Missouri Legislature,
were probably intended to attract
the attention of President Cleve-
land to that body as an excellent
place for the selection of Inter
State Commerce Commissioners.
in the United States Circuit
Court, writs of mandamus have
beenIissued to Scotland county, re-
quiring that county to levy tax to
meet the various coupons held by
VIM. Walsh, of Maryland, and sew
eral other parties.
The indications are that the
railroads will be ready for the In
ter State Commerce law long be-
fore the Inter State Commerce
law is ready for the railroads.
The Missouri Legislature
Will adjourn the 21st of March.

Only a Wild Rose.
BY HATTIE OLIVE SNOW.

Little May was sitting in front
OF the cottage thinking. It was Q
pretty little cottage with roses
clambering up the trellis, ard ivy
climbing over the door. In the
yard were all kinds of flowers:
roses, carnations, hyacinths and
mignonette; but the pride Of old
Grandpa Stanly's heart was lit
tie square near the front door COW
cred with wild roses, for it is not
every one who has wild loses in
the front yard.
AS | said, little May was thinking
and | will tell you what she was
thinking about. The evening be-
fore there had been a lecture in
the Town hall by man who had
claimed that there was no God.
May was SO busy wondering how a
person could be so wicked as to
think there was no God, that she
did not see a gentleman walk up
the front path towards the door,
and did not even know he
was near her, until he said: Il. tile
gir', of what are you thinking?"
May started and blushed as she
replied, 81 was thinking, sir, how
a person could be so wicked as to
believe that there is no God"
"And do You believe there is a
God?" said the gentleman.
Not once did May think, what
was really true, that this was the
gentleman who had delivered the
lecture the evening before; the
gentleman for whom she had prav-
ed SO earnestly that morning that
she, May Stanly, might be able to
do him some good.
She simply walked over to the
bed of wild roses and plucked one
of the most beautiful; a little bud
Just beginning to open, and said
sweetly, "Who made this?"
The gentleman took it, and
looked at the delicate golden pet
ais, almost hidden among the pink
satin leaves, and then at the eager
upturned face of May, and answer
ed softly ard reverently, "Gol
made il"
And there was JOY among the
angels of God in heaven over one
repenting sinner: An yet it was
only little wild rose bud.-New
York Observer.

it thoroughly hardens it is fire.

Greentop Crumbs.

Weather fine; roads drying;
farmers getting ready for farm
ing. We hear of some sowing oats.
Our merchants have been re-
ceiving their spring and summer
stocks of goods. Gatlin d Winfree
are going into the hardware and
queensware business on large
scale. They have been getting in
quite full stock this week.
We noticed last week that W. J..
Light was receiving lumber with
which to erect a dwelling on his
property in the north west part of
town; he having recently sold his
former residence to Mrs. G. w.
Gatlin. Also L. A. Parker was
receiving lumber, for the purpose
of building an addition to his res
idence. Surely Greentop is going
to take a boom in the near future.
Better move up Mr.. Editor and be
one of the populace of the city of
Push and Git.
Died March 9th at her home
near Greentop, Mrs. Nelson Poul-
son. Mrs. Poulson has been in
delicate health for some time past
and her death was not a surprise
to those familiar with her enfee-
bled condition. Also, on the 10th
at his home one mile west of
Greentop, Mr.. Joseph Bushey. Mr..
Bushey died when no one was at
home except himself. His wife
had gone TO see her married
daughter, Mrs. o. ?. Ralston, who
lived near; and Laura, the unmar-
ried daughter, had gone on an er-
rand to one of the neighbors who
lived near by. Mr.. Bushey had
been complaining some for two or
three days previous to his death,
but no one anticipated anything
serious as he was up and going
around, but when the daughter re-
turned from the neighbor's she
found him lying on apallet on the
floor, and the life all gone out.
Rev. Allen preached the funeral
sermon of both these parties at
the NJ. E. Church on Friday 11th,
at the same time, after which
they were inferred in Greentop
Cemetery. 1t is not often we see
two corpses brought into the sane
tuary at the same time to receive
the last rites of the church.
Our school opened on the Nth
with a full attendance. We under
stand the Webster's Unabridged
Dictionary for the school has ar
rived, and that the Globe will be
here in few days. Thanks to our
teachers for laboring SO zealously
to secure these valuable and indis-
pensible aids for our school.
There will be festival at the
Nj. E. Church Wednesday evening
The object being to raise mone7
for the payment of the minister.
We understand there is going to
be an entertainment soon the OBJ
lect beng to get money to build
walk from town to the church. By
all means go on with the good
work, for walk is much needed.
Evan French who sprained his
ankle, is no an better. He has
had serious time, his ankle and
leg each having had to be lanced;
and he IS very much reduced in
flesh and strength. We hope how
ever he may soon be up and
around again.
Mrs. John Wright is still quite
sick.
Mrs. G. W. Gatlin moved this
week into her residence purchased |
of W. J. Light.

THE LOAN PROPOSITION.

AZ tHe seHooi neetliS, Satur-
day evening, March 5th, it wasde-
cided to submit the proposition
to make a loan of twenty-one
thousand dollars, to build new
school houses for the town of
kirksville. The proposition was
carried with cheers, and the YER
dict of the people seemed to be
well done" There were few
who were not altogether satisfied,
but they were inclined to waive all
personal considerations, and sup
port the proposition, that Kinks
vile might have what she has so
long needed, decent accommoda-
tions for her school population.
The time to carry proposition
of this kind never seemed more
auspicious and we congratulate d
ourselves that the time was near
at hand when Kirksville would
have three school buildings that
we could point to with pride on
account of their elegance and con-
venience. But little cloud, the
size of mans hand, is in the hor-
izon and threatens to grow till all
our hopes are entirely obscured.
The notice of the annual school
meeting states that a proposition
to borrow twenty-one thousand
dollars to build school houses in
kirksyille will be considered. But
the notice does not state where the
school houses are to be built, only,
that one is to be centrally located.
The time is ripe for action, but
the voters want to know what they
are doing and what will be the re-
suit of voting the loan. IF the
people should vote the loan a
second vote will be necessary to Sc
lect the sites, and to effect an ad-
ditional loan for their purchase as
not dollar of. the twenty-one
thousand can be expended in this
direction. 1t might be that the peo-
pie would not ratify a loan in ad-
dition to the twenty-one thousand
to be expended in school build
ings. This would leave the school
board with one site, the old one,
and we state upon good authority
that the school board could ex-
pend, at least, the fifteen thousand
dollars voted for the central build
ing, upon the site where the old
building now stands, and probably
The entire amount, as there would
be no other course left them for
the disposition of the money. It
is with a school district as with an
individual, and we hardly think
an individual would borrow sever
al thousand dollars to build a
house when he does not own rod
of land, or if there was the slight
est question about his being able
to obtain it. We very much re-
gret the shape the question has
taken as it greatly endangers the
chances of voting the money
necessary to erect the new build
ings.
The opening months of
1887 will long be noted for the
number of railroad accidents.
